A Journey Into Excellence

This is the second episode of an ongoing monthly series entitled "Journey Into Excellence."  In this series, a panel of experts in leadership, management, sales, personal effectiveness, and life satisfaction explore how life, liberty, and happiness pursuit requires both clear thinking and civility in our family, education, and leadership/management systems.  In this episode, we'll explore how some specific thinking errors (or, "logical fallacies") interfere with optimal functioning across a variety of dimensions.

Our experts will start by reviewing the importance of civility and clear-thinking in helping ourselves and others to flourish within the family, education, and leadership/management systems.  They will then define three specific logical fallacies that often disrupt flourishing by promoting abuse, confusion, and lack of trust: (1) false cause, (2) strawman arguments, and (3) ad hominem attacks.  Finally, our experts will provide listeners with some specific activities that they can engage in to minimize the negative impact of these three huge barriers to happy and healthy families, satisfying and useful educational experiences, and profitable and helpful organizations.
